Abstract excerpt
Proton release and subsequent uptake by several forms of bacteriorhodopsin (bR), including 4-keto analogs of wild-type (WT) and D96N and D85N mutants as well as the 9-demethylretinal analog of WT and D96N mutants, have been measured using a highly sensitive electrochemical technique. Release and uptake of protons by bR in membrane patches on a tin oxide electrode produce a current transient whose amplitude is...
